The way I understand SIOP is that the content objectives are
what you want your students to do with the material you are
teaching. I believe they are the basic objectives that you've
been taught how to write throughout your teaching career.
The language objectives, on the other hand, are the ones that
focus on reading, listening, speaking and writing. For
example, if you are teaching first grade and working with
short a sounds, a writing objective might be to write five
words with the short a sound such as can, cat, hat, cap, and
mad. A reading objective might be to read the story Look at
Me! A speaking objective might be to state words that have a
short a sound. Finally, a listening objective might be to
listen to a story with short a sounds.
